Configuring a Bridge’s STP Settings
Caution
STP on a bridge is disabled by default. If you enable STP, the bridge
provides default STP parameters that are adequate for most
networks. Changing them without prior experience and an
understanding of how STP works might have a negative effect on
your network. You should consult the IEEE 802.1d
standard before
changing any of the STP parameters.
To configure a bridge’s STP parameters, perform the following
procedure:
1. Click on the Basic Config menu tab and select Spanning Tree from the
sub-menu. Choose STP Config from the next sub-menu.
The Spanning Tree Bridge Configuration page will appear, as
displayed in Figure 75.

2. Adjust the bridge STP settings as needed. The parameters are
described below.
Enable/Disable STP
Enables and disables STP on the switch. The default setting is
disabled.
